Hello! It seems it's that time already- the time where we announce some winners! For 2015 we're going to be doing things a bit differently around here. Our winner will still be selected by Random.org. However now, instead of there only being a Top 3, each DT member will select her favorite creation from among the entries to be spotlighted! There are just SO many amazing projects shared with us every challenge that we want you talented crafters to get the recognition you deserve!

HUGE thanks to our very special first sponsor of the year, Aurora Wings! And now if I can have a drum roll please....

Congrats to all our winners! Please grab your badges from the side bar and wear them with pride! (We are working on an updated Top Picks badge so feel free to stop back and check for it if you prefer that one instead of Top 3.) A new challenge began yesterday with sponsor A Day For Daisies! The theme is "Winter Blues" and you can go wintry or blue or both! We hope to see you play along for your chance to win a $12 gift voucher to the ADFD shop!

Brrr. Seems like no matter where you are in the country, things are just down right chilly this winter. We hope everyone is staying warm and snuggling up inside to watch all the big games, or with a good book or movie, and of course, some crafting in between. That's one of the plus sides if we have to be cooped up inside, more time to get crafty!

To help us get over those winter blues, we want you to create a wintry and/or blue project (note: does not have to be monochromatic but blue should be prominent)

We have a fabulous returning sponsor for our challenge - A Day For Daisies (also known as ADFD) provides themed categories of
over 1000 digital illustrations, including fairy tales and magical
mermaids, cutie kids, vintage illustrations, sentiments and lovely
designs for all occasions. Be sure to check out what is available in
the shop, and head over to the blog for some awesome inspiration!

Hello! Please excuse my tardiness for this winner's post! A day late and a dollar short is the story of my life! :-) We had almost 300 entries for our Anything Goes challenge over the holidays! Random.org has done the hard work of picking our prize winners, and we have a few favorites to share, but honestly if I could spotlight you all I would! There were oodles of AMAZING projects to ogle at! Thanks to everyone one of you who played along and to our two fabulous sponsors: Lacy Sunshine and Spellbinding Stamps by Nikki Burnette!

Congrats to our winners and please grab your badges from the side bar! We are super excited about our first challenge of 2015, which began on Sunday! It's "Shiny and New" with Aurora Wings and we hope to see you play along for your chance to win!

HAPPY NEW YEAR!! We hope everyone had a wonderful holiday season, and look forward to a happy, healthy, and crafty 2015! It was nice to take a little break and enjoy some time off but now we are ready to get back to business. That means it's time for the first challenge of the New Year. In honor of all things new, our challenge is "Shiny and New" - You can make a card for anything "new" (baby, marriage, etc), use something new, and/or use something shiny.

We are pleased to welcome back Aurora Wings and the beautiful fantasy art of Mitzi Sato-Wiuff. Here is a little about Mitzi from her website:

"Being originally from Japan, my work reflects the
influence of the vintage shoujo manga and classic tattoo artists of my
native country. There is a strong emphasis on the clean and detailed
line art hand drawn in pen on paper, which is colored digitally in my
own unique coloring technique using Corel Painter program. My fusion of
traditional and digital media produces a look reminiscent of watercolor
paintings. I hope my fantasy images will take you into the world of
pure imagination, presenting each subject in fluid lines and beautiful
colors."

Mitzi is offering a $15 gift certificate for a lucky winner!

Let's see what shiny and new inspiration the team has for you, using a selection of awesome Aurora Wings images.
